WHERE: #106D
RATING: TBD
STATUS: In Progress
Although Noah would admit that the new housing area was a little off the beaten path when compared to the location of the others, he was also grateful for the walk it took to get there as it gave him time to clear his head. Finding out that Emma lived directly next door to his parents had unnerved him a lot more than he'd let on. Someone as powerful as she was, with an ability like hers, was potentially in very real danger should Sylar ever learn of it. And with her being right next door, Noah knew the odds of that happening were doubled, if not tripled.
Plus there was the added question of whether or not Sylar would be able to tell he was visiting Emma and the subsequent questions that might follow. There was simply no way for him to explain why he was visiting her at such a late hour without delving into her ability and that was something he was simply not willing to consider doing. In the same vein, he couldn't refuse to help Emma after already agreeing, based solely upon her proximity to Sylar without explaining to her just why he was so hesitant to have the two of them cross paths.
It was quite a conundrum and finally he'd just decided that there was no easy solution and he was going to have to take his chances of running into Sylar in the hallway or something, because he couldn't bring himself not to help Emma. He wasn't a very good liar but he decided as his destination came into view that, if nothing else, he'd skirt around the real reason for his late-night vision to the point that hopefully innuendo would keep Sylar from figuring out what was really going on. Provided, of course, that they even crossed paths.
Stepping into the building, he made his way to room 106 and pointedly ignored even thinking about the room beside it as he raised his hand and knocked softly against the door.
